well first you need to figure out how much fabic she already has by adding 2 1/2 plus 1 3/4, but before you do that you need to get 1/2 into fourths, with would be 2/4 so the you would change 2 1/2 into 2 2/4, then you would add 2 2/4 with 1 3/4 which you then get 4 1/4 so the if she alredy has 3 yard you can subtract 4 1/2 and 3 and you would get 1 1/4 that if you know already one yard of fabic cost 7.98 you just have to figure out how much 1/4 of a yard is. you would have to divide 7.98 by 4 then you would get 1.99 (there was remanded of two) so you would add 7.98 and 1.99 and you would get 9.97 so you answer would be $9.97
The amount of money that Ciara needs is $ 9.975.
The materials needed to sew the new dance outfit;
Shawl = 2 1/2 yards
Dress = 1 3/4 yards
Total material required = 2 1/2 yards + 1 3/4 yards = 5/2 + 7/4 = 17/4 yards
Number of yards available = 3 yards
Number of yards required = 17/4 yards - 3 yards = 5/4 yards or 1.25 yards
If 1 yard costs $7.98
1.25 yards will cost 1.25 yards × $7.98/ 1 yard
= $ 9.975
